Not surprising, but he's going out while still playing good footy. I thought that after quarter time he killed Elliott who is s good player. 


He's been great for Melbourne - and we've been great for him.

 

A true hard but fair player.

He, and the team, must be having mixed feelings with what happened to Gus.

Thanks for your service Hibbo. 🫡


I have loved watching him play in red and blue. He gave you everything he had every contest, every week. Left nothing on the field and took nothing for granted. 
Was an enormous part of our 2021 flag. 
Thank you for all the wonderful years you’ve given to our club. I hope you enjoy life after footy! 

I will always remember Michael Hibberd running across Optus Oval with the Premiership Cup in his hand to share it with his brother. Thank you Hibbo a very hard tough team oriented player whose shoes will be hard to fill.❤️💙

Great pick-up for us.

Thanks for the memories Pig and best of luck in retirement. hopefully a second flag before you ride into the sunset.


Wonderful team player. Tough ,focused  and a Goodwin contested footy beast.

 

Soon to be dual premiership player.

Love Hibbo. Didn't know much about him before he joined but that first game he played I think against Richmond the dash and hardness was in full display. Kicked a goal with one of his first possessions. a well deserved AA that year as well. So glad he got a premiership. Will always be remembered fondly by the demon faithful. Let's give him 3 more games 

What a hard,contesting  team player - a key to the '21 flag. Thank you Michael.

Cheers, Champ. Devastated  that I will no longer be able to bellow "HIB-BOW-AH!" at the tele every time he gets the ball...


Been a great player. Another reason along with gus to pull out all stocks and win the flag.

Has always played his heart out for the team. Pity his body can't take another season because he is definitely still in our best 22 when fully fit. Every Demons fan will wish him well.

He’ll be remembered as a Premiership player. I reckon that seems right.

I’ll miss yelling out ‘go Pig!’ every week.

Congratulations hibbo!

I'm sure the kid from Frankston when he was drafted would never imagine that he'd pump out nearly 200 games at AFL level and win a flag.

A great reminder that if you miss out in getting drafted at 18 to just persevere and never give up on your dream.

Thanks for your service Pig. Now a life member and premiership hero.

So glad he came to the Dees, it has been a privilege watching him play. Best wishes for the future, Hibbo.


Loved what he brought to us. No nonsense, fair, tough, a little bit understated in many respects. I had the great joy of explaining the "Hibbo run" after the 21 flag, when he grabbed the cup and sprinted away from his team mates, laughing, as he took it over to his family.

How good is that.

Round 2 pick for a premiership player and an All Australian.

Big part of the 2021 flag.

Well gone Hibbo, the GF will be your 200th - go out with another flag!

 

I hope he gets one more chance to steal Charlie Cameron's motorbike. 

He has been a fantastic player for the Demons!

I will definitely miss Michael "Pig" Hibberd. He plays with toughness and determination. I love his hardness and desperation when he plays.

"Pig" will always be remembered as a wonderful Premiership player for the Demons!

We love you mate! 💗

ALL THE BEST PIG! YOU WILL ALWAYS BE A DEMON!!! 🔴🔵👹

Incidentally, this is another reason we should look to try and recruit Josh Sinn from Port Adelaide.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
